I partnered Jeff Zimmerman (Fangraphs, Rotowire, Fantrax, multiple-time Tout Wars Champ) to write this comprehensive e-book guide (PDF) that outlines the start-to-finish process we go through during a fantasy baseball season. Please click here to buy The Process e-book.

 

How to Win Your League

The book is a chronological guide through the fantasy baseball season, with the main goal being to help you win your league. The topics covered are:

  • Use of Projections
  • How to Adjust Projections
  • How to Convert Projections to Values/Rankings
  • How to Adjust Values and Rankings
  • Draft & Auction Preparation
  • Draft & Auction Strategy
  • In-season Management & Strategy
  • End-of-season Management & Strategy
  • Wrapping Up the Season

Player valuation and how it is determined are big themes in the book.
Player valuation and how it is determined are big themes in the book.

As you read through that list, you may be thinking, “I already know that topic,” or, “What more could be said about that?” But that is what I’m most proud of. I think we managed to provide unique perspective, insights, and studies that have not been seen before.

If you’re not an experienced owner and you’re looking for a place to start, The Process can help you too. It is a comprehensive guide, but we also present shortcuts and alternate ways of doing things. You can pick and choose the topics or areas in which you want to expand your game. Adding one or two new strategies or tactics to your own process each season is a great way to improve over time.

I’m also very proud of the way we were able to weave in a lot of theory, so owners are not just presented with a way of doing things, but can also understand the “why”, so it can be applied to similar situations in the future.

Cognitive biases and other decision-making concepts are also sprinkled throughout the book. We believe this combination of process, theory, and decision-making tactics makes The Process a unique tool for fantasy owners.

Tell Me More About What’s Included

One of the more interesting studies included in the book is around the concept of weekly player values. Much of the research and decision-making fantasy owners do centers around annual valuations for players. Yet outside of draft and hold leagues, we don’t make decisions on an annual time horizon. Most owners must make decisions on a weekly or even daily basis. A study of weekly player valuations sheds light on how well we capture value in the preseason, what kinds of players create weekly value, and when new value appears during the season.

This table is one of many in a study of how well fantasy owners do at capturing weekly hitter and pitcher value.

The book also includes average standings data and standings gain points calculations for many popular league variations. Save hours of time having to calculate these yourself!

Example AL-Only OBP  Average League Standings Data
Example AL-Only OBP Average League Standings Data

This data is provided for the following league types:

  • 15-team, Standard League (14 hitters, 9 pitchers)
  • 15-team, 1-Catcher League (2 utility hitters)
  • 15-team, OBP League (instead of batting average>
  • 15-team, Draft and Hold League (no in-season pickups)
  • 12-team, Standard League
  • 12-team, OBP League
  • 12-team, AL-only Standard League
  • 12-team, NL-only Standard League
  • 12-team, AL-only OBP League
  • 12-team, NL-only OBP League

What Do Others Have to Say?

You don’t just have to take my word for it. Some of the minds I most respect in the fantasy baseball community have taken the time to read the book and offer their feedback (Rob Silver, Rudy Gamble, Eno Sarris, Mike Podhorzer, Mike Gianella). You can see what they had to say here.
